CVE-2026-105823
Description
A flaw was found in ImageMagick. The CUT encoder fails to properly enforce configured security policies when processing image data. An attacker could supply specially crafted input to bypass these security controls, potentially causing the application to crash, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS), or disclosing sensitive information.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.

Integrity,Confidentiality,Availability,Access Control,Other
Technical Impact: Gain Privileges or Assume Identity; Read Application Data; Modify Application Data; Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands; Other
Exposing critical functionality essentially provides an attacker with the privilege level of the exposed functionality. This could result in the modification or exposure of sensitive data or possibly even execution of arbitrary code.
